Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Arlington
Adults with no health insurance runs 35.6% against 11.3% nationally. 100% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Set annual rent against average income of $37,179 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The severe-burden share is 27%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
It sits 1.0 points above the Tarrant County average of 3.8. Average gross rent is $1,299, 12% below the Arlington average. That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.4/10. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
